NORTH BERWICK, Maine — Many local residents will receive free home repairs this summer thanks to the hard work and dedication of nearly 400 teenage and adult volunteers who will participate in a Table of Plenty Workcamp around Southern York County from July 27 to August 2. The program, sponsored locally by the Parish of the Ascension of the Lord and the Table of Plenty, provides interior and exterior painting, weatherization, ramp construction and other work. At each Workcamp, volunteers from church youth groups around the country donate a week of their time to repair homes throughout the community.

Parish of the Ascension of the Lord includes St. Raphael Church, Kittery; St. Christopher Church, York; Our Lady of the Angels Church, South Berwick; and Star of the Sea Church, York Beach.

The Table of Plenty is the local soup kitchen for York, Kittery and Berwick. Participants will be based at Noble High School in North Berwick and will sleep on classroom floors, eat in the cafeteria and enjoy evening programs in the gym.
